== Imperial Law ==

Law is seen and enforced very differently in the Empire. The [[Emperor]] is the sovereign ruler of the Empire and above the law. [[Senators]] are responsible for enforcing ~~Imperial Law~~, but the Senators themselves are above the law. They can order executions, and can even kill people themselves, though sometimes (rarely) they may be held to account for their actions by the Emperor. Some Senators are warlike and may take over systems in the name of the Empire, to get the spoils, and they may get a good deal of support as a result. Some Senators do not tolerate [[slavery]], and regularly speak out against it, but from the basis of honour - not suggesting it should not be legal. In the Empire, very little is illegal, but many things are frowned upon, like excessive use of narcotics. [[Cloning]] and [[genetic engineering]] are allowed in the Empire.<ref name=":1">[http://us2.campaign-archive1.com/?u=dcbf6b86b4b0c7d1c21b73b1e&id=f72c0f91b2 Newsletter #22]</ref><ref name=":7">Tourist Beacon 0128</ref><ref name=":5" />
